Postpartum Depression

Dr. appt tomorrow

I'm going to the doctor to see about getting back on anti-depressants.... 3 weeks out, and I am feeling so out of control I can't stand it. I was on Effexor, and weaned myself off during pregnancy, I guess I will try to go back on that, though the weaning process is horrible.... but at the rate I feel right now, I may be on this stuff for the rest of my life.

I'm so anxious, I'm so overwhelmed, I am miserable. I haven't been able to enjoy my LO since he was born, I'm so afraid of taking good care of him, and I just feel panicked all the time.

Someone please tell me this gets better and the medicines will help. I have half a mind to call the dr. back and tell them to fit me in TODAY. =(

  • It will get better, I promise!  The good news is that you recognized that you needed to go back on the meds.  A happy Mom = a happy baby.  I hope that the meds help quickly!  GL

  • Good news? It gets better.

    Bad news?  It takes time.

    You're already taking steps to help yourself by recognizing that you're out of sorts. That's a wonderful start.

    GL!
